MAINE DISPATCHES.
FOILED IN HIS PLOT.
supposed Thief Caught and Handed
Over to Officers.

PORTLAND, Oct. 80,
The morning train over the Boston & Maine
railroad brought passenger of rather un-
usual kind Some time before reaching the
Portland station the conductor discovered A
man IN the express ear OF the train. and Sc
cured him in the car.
The man had bundled up quantity of
goods, making two or three sizeable pack
ages of valuables and had evidently planned
to make his escape with them on arriving in
Portland. When the train reached this city
the police were notified, and officers Eaton
and Sylvester took the thief in custody and
lodged him in the police station At the sta
ton the man gave his name as Charles Sui
liyan and claims residence in Lewiston.
The ear was opened by forcing a door. 1t
is not known at what point on the line the
break" was effected but the conductor of
the train thinks il must have been at Dover,
\. II. Pending the settlement of this point
the point the prisoner will be held here, and
will be arraigned in the State of New Hamp-
shire according as this fact shall be deter
mined.

AN INTERVIEW
With Lord Chamberlain Concerning
His Visit to the United States and
Canada.

LONDON, Oct. 30.
Lord Chamberlain was interviewed on
board the Etrunia at Queenstown, to-day.
He said that on his arrival at New York, he
intended to go direct to Washington not TO
Ottawa. He attached no importance to the
structures that certain Canadian and Ameri-
can papers thought fit to pass upon him.
Il didn't intend TO return to England directly
as my labor is finished, not having been in
America before. | am very anxious to see
the country and the institutions" He said it
was also his purpose TO visit Canada, and
unlikely should not return until shortly be-
fore the assembling of parliament. He was
inclined to think that if some great and gem
erous scheme for local good was granted
Ireland, the feeling in favor of a seperate
parliament would gradually die away.
He believed that it was not beyond reach
of craftsmanship to make Ireland peaceable
and contcnted with full measure of local
government.

ON THE SICK LIST.
Secretary Whitney in New York on
Account of Illness.
WASHINGTON. Oct. .

WAsHINGToN, Oct. 20.
Secretary Whitney is now in New York,
and will not return to Washington for an in
definite period. He is forbidden by his ply
scan from undertaking any work. For the
past year the Secretary has had troublesome
headaches which have grown more and
more severe and frequent, until now he is
unable to work. For the past two weeks he
has not been able even to read his letters,
and. although he has accumulated some of
the materials, he has written no part of his
annual report and there is no prospect that
he will be able to prepare one. The physi-
clans state that with the necessary rest the
Secretary will be perfectly well again, and it
is probable that he will go to some quiet
country place to recuperate. During his alb
senceIC commodore Harmony will act as Secre-
tary, his duties and responsibilities being
shared however by the board of bureau of
ficers recently organized to meet the emer-
gency.

ANNUAL REPORT
OF the Maine Fertilizer Control and
Agricultural Experiment Station
A Valuable work.---congress will un-
doubtedly make provision for the
continuance of the Station

The annual report of the Board of Mama
gers of the Maine Fertilizer Control and
Agricultural Experiment. Station for the year
ending July /, 1887, containing li5 pages,
has been submitted to the Governor and Coun-
ell and is valuable work. The report of Will
liam Downs, Treasurer, for the year ending
December 81, 1856. shows there was at that
time balance in the treasury of Sl5s.50'
The subject matter of the report embraces
the following;
/. Fertilizers.
(a) Inspection of fertilizers.
(b) Analyses of Miscellaneous Fertilizing
Materials.
(c) Experiments with Fertilizers---at the
station and among farmers.
(d) Inquiries Concerning fertilizers.
p Foods.
(a) Analyses of Cattle Foods.
(b) Determination of the Digestibility of
Various Cattle Foods.
(c) Feeding Experiments with Various
Kinds and Quantities of Food. For
milk and butter and for growth.
I'D Inquiries Concerning Cattle Foods
s. Tests of Varieties of Grain and Potatoes.
I4Aptllutht> III hiieihS NAthAh'
g. Miscellaneous.
g. Analytical and Experimental Methods.
I. Licenses issued, and Laws.
1t is believed that the work undertaken
will commend itself TO farmers as being
practical and as calculated to throw needed
light upon questions that are important in
farm practice. Some of the experiments
have furnished results that should be direct
ly useful and suggestive TO the stock-grower
and dairyman, and certainly the figures
fertilizers for which several hundred thous-
and dollars are annually expended in this
State have value that is direct and ap-
preciable.
An act of the Legislature was passed last
winter abolishing the Station and requiring
its transfer to the Agricultural College at
Orono October /, 1887, which, as stated
some weeks ago, has already been done.
The action of the Legislature was taken on
the supposition that the appropriation pro-
vided in the Hatch bill, then before Congress
Nouiu btCoihV aNdiihhiS AZ thS 'ihN 'he '''
ton ceased to be an institution under the
State law of 1885. Congress however failed
to make the required appropriation, but ar
rangements were made with the trustees OF
the college to continue the Station during
the present year. The importance and ad-
vantage to the farmers of Maine of its con
tinuancc has been fully demonstrated and il
is believed that Congress will, early in It's
coming session, make suitable provisions fol
its permanent establishment and future
success
